A Father's Day incursion

At 11am Spanish oiler navigated through British Gibraltar Territorial waters shadowed by a British Royal Naval Patrol. Just 48hrs after Britain had said it would lodge a formal complaint against an incursion by the same vessel.

Gibraltar – 18th June 2017 – At approximately 1100hrs on Sunday 18th June 2017 Gibraltar celebrated Father’s Day with a Spanish naval vessel entering British Gibraltar Territorial Waters in what was a clear affront to the British Royal Navy and British sovereignty over the waters.
The Spanish naval vessel crossed through the Bay of Gibraltar, ignoring all warnings to leave the ara, as it headed towards the East Side whilst being shadowed by the Gibraltar Squadron. The incident comes just 48hrs after the British officials stated that they would be making a formal complaint to the Spanish authorities over two previous incursions on Friday afternoon, one of which saw a Spanish naval vessel cross into the path of a Gibraltar Squadron patrol boat.
